[VonRiver]

Hi to all.,

I need you help with this M35 Luftwaffe helmet.
it's a original helmet (all original)... or have some original things... or it's a completely fake?

Best Regards.,

This helmet looks a lot like the DD luft I got late last year. The paint which should be blue looks green due to the aging of the finish they put over it which also caused the decal to heavily craze. Furthermore it looks like there used to be a national shield decal as well but it was covered. You need better pics of the chinstrap specifically of the markings to determine if that part is original. I'm going to guess it's original due to the crazing on the decal and the blue/green paint but wait for more opinions.

Hi, as said, looks like a good Quist Luftwaffe helmet, the Quist decals often crazed heavily due to lacquer applied. Leon.
